Here is video of Texas Sen. John Cornyn today on Face the Nation where he said President Obama's "deliberation" in making a decision on whether to give Gen. Stanley McChrystal the troops he needs to win in Afghanistan is now looking like "indecisiveness," and is "emboldening our enemies." He also said it causes our allies to "question our resolve."

“Deliberation is a good thing when it comes to fighting wars, but we’ve been at war for eight years in Afghanistan following 9/11… At some point deliberation begins to look more like indecisiveness, which then becomes a way of emboldening our enemies and causing our allies to question our resolve."

About Freedom's Lighthouse

Freedom's Lighthouse is dedicated to being a blog of record for the political history of the United States of America. The United States is "Freedom's Lighthouse" in a world where the light of freedom is not found in many places. We will record that history - past and present - with a great emphasis on video, and will also mix in some of the nation's top sports and cultural news. In all we do we will seek to uphold the conservative principles that have made America "Freedom's Lighthouse."
